If Margot’s words turned Ellen’s entire world upside down, then Suellen’s words dealt a heavy blow to Ellen. Even Ellen didn’t know how she left Margot’s study and returned to her bedroom. of.

Now, Ellen not only had to worry about her two young daughters, but Scarlett as well.

As a mother, Ellen certainly hopes that her daughter can be happy.Before today, Ellen could have told herself that Scarlett had announced her engagement so soon after their reunion because she had long been in love with Charles Hamilton.But now, Ellen discovered that this eldest daughter was simply a wayward brat.But marriage needs tolerance and consideration, willfulness will only bring harm to married life.

If there is no Marge, if there is no Suellen, Ellen may be more worried about the eldest daughter, but now, Ellen's feelings about the eldest daughter Scarlett are complicated.

Although the war played a big role, Ellen had to admit that because she spent too much energy on Scarlett and her husband's eccentricity, the family no longer had room for her two young daughters. at.This forced the two children to use this method to find a way out.

But as someone who has experienced it, Ellen knows very well how difficult it is to manage a marriage well.Marrying with the idea of ​​leaving home early will definitely affect the happiness after marriage.

Ellen was convinced that her two daughters were telling the truth.But it was because of what Margot and Suellen said that made Ellen even more disturbed.

That night, Ellen didn't sleep all night.

Ellen, who understood the whole story, finally helped persuade her husband to agree that Margot and Suellen would get married as soon as possible. Even though Gerald was very angry, he finally had to agree.Because Gerald also saw it, his beloved eldest daughter was jointly rejected by his three younger sisters.

From that dinner onwards, the three O'Haras, Margot, Suellen, and Karin, went in and out together.Whether talking in Margot's study, sewing in the studio, walking in the garden, or exploring the swamp, the three sisters acted together, as if cherishing the last time before marriage.

However, once Scarlett appeared, or wanted to join them, the three sisters would use various reasons to shift positions and resolutely refused to say a word to Scarlett.

Even though Scarlett's face became darker day by day, even though Gerald was furious about it, the three sisters remained unmoved.

Even the youngest, Karin, said she didn't have so much time to talk nonsense with Scarlett.These days, she followed Suellen and was taught by her sister Marge.Originally, she should have learned these things by watching and learning from Margot as she grew older, but now Margot and Suellen are going to get married, and after they both decided to get married three days later, they will follow The husband leaves.Therefore, these things must be grasped now, even if you can't learn them for a while, you must have an impression in your mind.Once a war breaks out, maybe the communication will be interrupted. At this time, you have to survive on your own.Therefore, Karin listened very carefully.

In the cabin by the swamp, Marge pointed to the glassware and said, "I got these through those publishers. Thanks to their generosity, I said that there are a few phenomena in medical translation that need to be confirmed. They These were sent to me. Through these instruments, I extracted a large amount of vitamin C tablets and several cold medicines. Remember, the symptoms of wind-cold cold and wind-heat cold are different. Wind-cold cold is more common in women, because everyone All naked|Exposing large areas of chest, arms and so on. Those with poor physique will catch a cold when the weather changes. As for wind-heat cold, it mostly comes from men. The specific disease judgment and how to use it are listed in the instruction manual. Yes. After distributing these potions to the boys in the county, there should be some left in the family. So I will divide the remaining ones into four. Suellen and I will each take one and give the other to Mom. As for the rest, I will hide it in this cabinet. Karin, my mother is a typical southerner. If the neighbor has any problems, he will definitely help. There is a little medicine at home. Maybe my mother will use it someday I don’t know who is on it. Therefore, you must hide the medicine here. Even if you hide half of it in your house, it will be fine. When necessary, this will become a life-saving thing.”

Karin nodded emphatically, expressing that she remembered.

In the garden, Margot pointed to her own flowerbed, and said: "Scarlett always jokes that my flowerbed is always grassy, ​​and even when it blooms, it is ugly. But she doesn't know that these grasses, including There are three kinds of crops, and the rest are mostly medicinal materials."

This nursery was opened by Gerald when Margot was six or seven years old, because she liked a fragrant gardenia, a flower from the east.Everyone in the O'Hara family, including the rest of the county, knew Marge as a girl who loved gardening but didn't have much talent.But today, both Suellen and Karin knew that it wasn't that Margot couldn't do it, but that Margot had already been preparing for it.

Margot said: "This is rice, this is millet, and that is sugarcane. We all know the planting period of wheat. Depending on the variety, it takes at least 270 days to harvest, and more than 120 days. Rice, Generally speaking, [-] days is enough. In other words, in Georgia, only one season of wheat can be planted a year, while rice can be harvested twice a year. Millet is a representative of low input and high output, and one seed is planted in spring , Harvest thousands of millet in autumn, it is he who is talking about. Once the war starts, the Yankees will definitely come to burn the crops. Cotton and wheat may not be able to escape. On the contrary, rice and millet, because they are exotic crops, no one recognizes them, may escape Live forever."

"As for sugar cane, most of the plantations in the county grow cotton, and there is very little sugar cane. I think that once the war breaks out, the price of things like sugar will skyrocket. So, I still found high-quality sugar cane seedlings through a publisher. "

While talking, Marge took out another piece of paper and said: "This is the list. Over the years, when I was taking care of these crops, I also trained some people. These people are all able to grow this. These people, I It will be divided into three parts, Suellen and I will take one part away, and the other will stay at home. Karin, these people will be handed over to you. You can tell mom if necessary."

Both Suellen and Karin nodded emphatically.

Time is running out and they have to get ready for war.
